2. Quick & dirty via removable USB drive – Don’t leave this attached but connect it and copy your \MAS90 and related folders. Then disconnect the USB. These drives are so cheap that you should pick up several and rotate them.

Tip: Staples had a 2 TB USB drive for $ 99. Granted these are not enterprise grade drives that will last years and years. However something is better than nothing.

3. Online backup using either the business version of Carbonite or Mozy.

4. Third party services which place an appliance at your office and also have the ability to quickly create an RDP type connection should your on-site server become infected.http://disaster-recovery-services.net/cloud-data-backup-solutions/
The cost on some of these solutions seems expensive until you consider that if you lose your data and have to re-create an AR aging that you’ll potentially lose at least that much in missed billing – and that’s not even considering the time lost due to your employees sitting idle.

We’ve reached the end of the casual “I thought you were backing up” and entered a time when you must be much more proactive about ensuring that you have a good recent backup.
